I know you’ve heard this from me lately, it’s been a hectic stressful couple of weeks!  You’ve probably heard it enough that you’re starting to think ‘here we go with the excuses’, and honestly I agree with you.  My food is not under control, my workouts are down and the scale is not moving!  I think the inches have stopped moving too, but I’m afraid to check.

I NEED A PLAN!!!

I tend to be a pretty organized person.  Always some sort of idea about what needs done and a plan to make it happen.  I had been that way with the gym, 4 times a week, once with a trainer, a couple of classes and a solo that has some cardio.  Work it in on weeknights so my weekends are chill and I have time for Fun.  I had that rocking for a month or so.  Now I’ve made it twice the last couple of weeks, which is HALF the visits in my goal.  I should be exceeding this goal, not missing it!!

So far a plan for the food has not happened.  Well mostly not happened.  I can figure out breakfast and generally stick to it.  Although as I write this I am remembering the impulse donut yesterday.  Donuts aren’t even my thing for crying out loud, but someone sat a huge box in front of me and I wasn’t able to fight the urge.  Ugh!  In my defense it was really thick and cooked just right so it was fluffy…….mmmmmm……SQUIRREL!  Normally though when I’m in my office and I have prepared at home I can keep breakfast pretty healthy and it’s the one area I am doing good at.  After about 10:30am though it’s all kinds of off course until I go to bed!

Here’s where I’m stuck about the food.  I want to develop a way of eating that will work for me long-term.  I have done some diet plans and stuck to them with some success……for a few months, but not long-term.  I want something that satisfies me, is manageable and I can implement for the rest of my life.  When I say it like that it sounds like some grand vision, but I really believe that’s possible.  I’ve looked into ‘clean eating’ a little.  I don’t think that will fit my lifestyle over the long haul.  I am pretty opposed to Atkins or Keto, unless you can sway me with a well formulated argument.  So now what? I need ideas people!!

Also, (but I planned to discuss this on another post) I am thinking about supplements or some sort of fat burning helper.  I know a lot of people use them and it may be something I should finally consider.

Information, opinions, ideas, general comments……….And GO!
